Are there any Dentist say who could help identify what this is?

Got a mild tooth pain when I bite down hard. Of course we are going on holiday tomorrow so not going be able to see a Dentist for at least a week. I can avoid chewing on that side though.
I've tried to take a picture and I can't really identify what I'm seeing.

Does that tooth have a crown or veneer? It looks like that's what is is to me but I should stress, I am certainly not a dentist.

I'm not sure. I know I should know these things. 🙈 I can't remember having a crown but I could have done. I hate the dentist so generally just block it all out.

The tooth might have cracked around the filling

The filling might be loose

Who knows?

Not a dentist but the tooth with the filling looks cracked.

You didn't say where you're going but my mum had some excellent emergency dental work done when she was on holiday in Greece. Was cheap as well.

Could be a dental infection I’m afraid. Needs draining. Make sure you know where the emergency dentist is where you are going to. Can get nasty.

You have a crown on one of your teeth. Unfortunately the photo doesn't help..you need a proper check up and xrays to work out where the pain is coming from. Sorry!

You are talking about the raised area in the palate?

Do some salt mouthwashes with warm water and take ibuprofen while your waiting to see a dentist.
Even if there was a genuine dentist on here they are not going to diagnose you from a photo.
